"Your Majesty, the chief arrester of the Pingxi City Criminal Arrest Office has arrived and is waiting outside the door..."
An announcement came from Xiong Gungun outside the door. Yan Liqiang raised his head from the pile of papers on the table, glanced outside the door, and his heart moved, "Let him wait a moment, I'll finish the things at hand." , let him come in again..."
"Yes!" Xiong Gungun bowed and accepted the order and left.
Yan Liqiang looked at the pile of papers on the table again and murmured to himself, "Interesting..."
On the top of the pile of paper are several pictures. As a man of two generations, Yan Liqiang is very familiar with the things on those pictures - among the two pictures, one picture has a picture of a screw and a nut, and the other picture is a picture of a screw and a nut. One is a bearing.
The screws and nuts in the picture look a bit rough. The spiral threads are not finer than the ordinary screws Yan Liqiang saw in his previous life. The opening of the screw thread is also a bit large. The square nut head also looks a bit rough. Weird, but none of this affects their identity. This is indeed a screw. The metal sample of this screw is placed in a box next to it. The sample is exactly the same as the graphic.
Compared with the screw, what interests Yan Liqiang more is the bearing. The diameter of the entire bearing is about fifteen centimeters, and the diameter of the inner ring is the size of a duck egg. There are four cylindrical rollers in the bearing connected to the inner ring. It looks like It's silly, big and black, but it's also a genuine bearing. The sample of this bearing is also placed in a box next to it. Yan Liqiang has just seen it. When he picks it up and turns it with his hands, it can turn very fast with very little resistance. Such bearings are a huge improvement across the ages compared to the traditional sliding bearings that are now prevalent in the world.
These two things were not drawn by Yan Liqiang, but the latest inventions of the craftsmen of the Manufacturing Bureau. From the beginning of the establishment of the Manufacturing Bureau, Yan Liqiang attached great importance to the pioneering and inventive spirit of the craftsmen in the Manufacturing Bureau. As long as there were inventions and craftsmanship, Those who make breakthroughs will receive heavy rewards. This heavy reward is not like other crafting camps that only award 12, 80, or dozens of taels of silver for making something good. The rewards in the manufacturing bureau are at least a hundred taels of silver. In the beginning, the most was even tens of thousands of taels of silver. It was in this atmosphere that the craftsmen in the manufacturing bureau were full of energy and made many small inventions and process improvements. , and these screws and bearings are the latest things made by the new craftsmen in the manufacturing bureau, and they were also the subject of Yan Liqiang's public relations reward in the manufacturing bureau.
Screws solve the problem of connection and fixation between metal parts and even non-metal parts, while bearings solve the problems of efficiency and durability of the traditional sliding bearings used in the four-wheel carriages produced by the manufacturing bureau. Yan Liqiang originally had the answer in his mind, but he deliberately did not say it out loud. Instead, he looked to see if the craftsmen of the Manufacturing Bureau could think of it and could solve it. The final result was as expected by Yan Liqiang. Although the craftsmen of the Manufacturing Bureau It took a little longer for the craftsmen to come up with a solution, but in any case, the screws and bearings were still found.
The craftsman who made the screws was originally a jewelry craftsman in Pingxi City. He was good at craftsmanship and specialized in making exquisite things. Hearing that the craftsmen at the Manufacturing Bureau were well paid, he came to join the Manufacturing Bureau. After some assessment, he was able to make it last year. Into the manufacturing bureau.
The invention of bearings is also a bit funny, because when the water lighter was invented before, the principle of roller bearings was actually applied to the flywheel and rotating shaft of the water lighter. However, there were no bearings on the water lighter, but on the flywheel and crankshaft. Four independent rollers are added in between, and the entire mechanism is completely connected with the water lighter and is part of the water lighter mechanism.
This time, after hundreds of water-fired generators were manufactured in the manufacturing bureau, some craftsmen finally thought of the connecting part between the crankshaft and the flywheel on the water-fired machine. If the heavy and redundant flywheel and crankshaft were removed, the rotating rollers and upper and lower parts If it becomes an independent component, then this component can also be used in other places. Thus, the first roller bearing of Silver Continent was born.
Until now, although these two items have been produced, the craftsmen at the Manufacturing Bureau have not yet given them names.
Yan Liqiang likes these two things very much, but what makes Yan Liqiang even more happy and gratified is that he finally saw the vitality and creativity displayed by the manufacturing bureau. With such ability, the manufacturing bureau is the manufacturing bureau in Yan Liqiang's heart.
—Now you can name it a screw, and the craftsman who invented it will be rewarded 10,000 taels of silver!
- This thing can be named a bearing, and the inventor will be rewarded with twenty thousand taels of silver. This thing can be used on four-wheeled carriages first. On the latest water and fire engines, it can be considered to replace the connection between the flywheel and the crankshaft with this thing, screws and bearings. There is still room for improvement in both items. I hope the craftsmen in the game will continue to study and make persistent efforts!
—I feel so relieved to see so many creations made by the craftsmen in the game, and they have become accustomed to drawing with pencils. The sizes are clearly marked in the drawings!
Yan Liqiang took out his pen and wrote down his comments on the official document reported by the Manufacturing Bureau. Then he closed the official document and put it aside the table. After drinking two sips of tea and resting for a while, he left The chief arrester of the Pingxi City Criminal Arrest Office who was waiting outside was called in.
In just a moment, a man wearing soap clothes came into the hall. As soon as he came in, he glanced at Yan Liqiang who was sitting behind the public case, and immediately bowed and said, "Han, the chief arrester of Pingxi City's torture yamen. Ping pays homage to the Governor!"
With a thick beard, Chinese character face, dark face, and a strong body, coupled with the public uniform that always arrests people, such a person does have an aura that scares the young people in the city just casually standing on the street. , this person is not a stranger to Yan Liqiang, but an "acquaintance", but who would know that such a person is actually a member of the White Lotus Sect...
Yan Liqiang secretly sighed in his heart, the thought snake in his head had begun to move, but his face became more kind, and he showed a smile, "Sit down, don't be rigid, speaking of it, you and I are also second We met for the first time. I remember the last time we met, it was a few years ago. Mr. Sun came to Pingxi City for inspection and captured Ye Tiancheng. I went to search Ye Tiancheng’s villa outside the city. I remember that at that time, it was you who led the team outside the villa. …”
Hearing what Yan Liqiang said, Han Ping's face immediately showed the right expression of flattery and excitement. As soon as his butt touched the chair, it immediately bounced up with a spring. He bowed to Yan Liqiang again, "I'm so scared at this humble position. I didn't expect that. Lord Supervisor saw his humble side a few years ago, and he still remembers it!"
"Haha, I have a good memory. I remember that you were just the head catcher at that time, but I didn't expect that you have become the chief catcher in the past few years. You are doing a good job!"
"I work hard in my humble position. Thanks to Mr. Wang Jianbei for promoting me..."
"Do you know why I called you here this time?"
"You can guess a little bit!"
"Haha, you are serious, then tell me why I asked you to come!"
"Your Majesty called me to come here, it must be about the case of the missing students of the Kyudo Club!"
"Yes, you guessed it right!" Yan Liqiang narrowed his eyes slightly, leaned forward, and stared at Han Ping's face seriously, "This matter has a bad impact. The missing Xue Cao was also an outstanding performer in the Kyudo Club. student, and has advanced to become a warrior. In your opinion, who dared to kidnap Xue Cao? You have been tracking him for so long, but do you have any news? "
